A rarely for sale mansion in Glasgow has been put on the market, described as one of the most ‘notable houses’ in the city.
Sat in the Southside, Matheran is a seven-bedroom Baronial mansion situated in the highly desirable Avenues area. Formerly split into multiple dwellings, the Victorian home has been restored and now spreads across 10,000 square feet as one extraordinary home.
Spanning across three floors, the property is the definition of luxury living. A state-of-the-art security system ensures complete safety in the walls of the home, while on the other side sits fully enclosed private gardens.

Letting agents Savills describe the home on their listing, stating: “On entering through the large stone gate piers the statue and quality of this property are immediately apparent.
“The terrazzo tiled entrance vestibule opens through a magnificent front door and the eyes are immediately drawn to the vast reception hall. Rich wood panelling, much of which is original to the house, vaulted ceilings and splendid open fireplace along with the spectacular stained glass windows, give a flavour of what is to come.”
Further into the home, and you’ll find one of the seven ‘generously proportioned’ reception rooms. The drawing room leads onto the dining room, and then on again into the kitchen - the perfect entertaining space for friends and family.
Deeper into the property and you’ll find an incredible home office, said to make even the most resistant worker keen to get started. The lounge areas, which would have once served as the billiards room, now make for the perfect family room or more entertaining space.
The home also boasts an extensive wine cellar, full gym with changing facilities and a sauna. As for the bedrooms, each one enjoys bright and leafy outlooks with en suite bathrooms.
Surrounding the mansion is an ‘equally glorious’ garden, with 0.86 acres of grounds enclosed with original stone walls. The sweeping driveway which takes you up to the house turns around a picturesque circle to a parking bay, leading on to a double garage.
Further afield, the area of Pollokshaws dates back to 1270 - evolving over the last 150 years as one of the finest suburbs in the city. Sherbrooke Avenue is situated within walking distance to Pollok House, Haggs Castle Golf Course and numerous sporting facilities.
Maxwell Park, Bellahouston Park, the House for an Art Lover are also nearby. Dumbreck railway station provides regular travel into the city centre, just six minutes walk away.
